Furthermore, he tells that, all of you must have must have watched Mirzapur sitting on your throne. But, this time round, if you don’t get up from the throne, then, it will eb equivalent to a huge risk.

Another voice states, that “Kaleen Bhaiyaa was absolutely right. Taking risks is our USP”. This is then, followed by Ali Fazal holding a gun and in his typical and trademark fierce avatar and mouthing the dialogue, “Ab jo hai naa… saara khel badal diya hai”., which means, ‘Now… we have changed the game totally!’.

In the same breath, he adds, “Kya hai… Mirzapur aapke paas nahi aayega. Aapko Mirzapur ke paas aana padega”. (This time round, Mirzapur will not come to you. You will have to come to Mirzapur). In no time, there emerges Divyenndu’s character who tells that he is a ‘Hindi fillum’s hero’! He adds that, Hindi films are best enjoyed in theatres only!

In no time, there was an array of fans and followers who took to the comments section and shared their views on the same. One user wrote, ‘This is the best and the awesome news of the day. Never ever did anyone expect that this series will be converted into a film. Mirzapur has been a tale full of power struggles, revenge, and ambition that unfolds to keep the viewers hanging in suspense. The star cast of the show does a great job of impressing the audience, courtesy Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, Divyenndu Sharma, and Rasika Dugal. It also brought out realistic presentation of the underworld in the state of Uttar Pradesh and talks about lawlessness and corruption. As of every character, no matter how small he is as a person, is beautifully developed with reasons and histories that add up to it. I really hope that the film will cover upon these points too!

Another user posted, ‘The series was laced with great dialogues in it, and some parts have already been included within the popular culture. This show was pretty great through its visual aspects. Like, its color palette to composition to angles are always working for a story of those characters. The series explored all grayish areas of morality. Then, it just gets down to the core in respect of questioning by people: what is right or what's wrong. I really feel that the makers should not miss any of these vital points’.

A netizen pointed out, ‘The series of Mirzapur has always been full of unexpected turns to twists, so keep thinking over what's about to take place next and all at the same time waits on. The storyline was very fast-paced and will be left at cliff-hangers so you have to keep watching to know what happened next. I really beg of the film makers to not tease any of these vital points and aspects!’
